Hi, Has anyone else noticed that Google Chrome (release) can cause a kernel oops and pretty much bring a box down?
My dad's box crashed on him this week and running Google Chrome now causes an
oops and X grinds to a halt and eventually the box needs a cold restart. He
has an Intel i915 graphics driver loaded when the oops happens.
Iceweasel is perfectly okay.
A quick Google suggests that the sandboxing may be an issue, but starting it
with sandbox disabled prevents a crash but then Chrome just sits around doing
nothing at all.
I've told him to use Iceweasel until further notice. I'll keep an eye on the
updated and see if one fixes it.
